Type Parameters

TRng

The random source type, which must be a class implementing IRandomSource.

WrappedRandomSource<TRng> enables usage of Numerics.NET RNGs in APIs that require Random. All random generation methods forward directly to the Underlying random source.

Interoperability Boundary:

This wrapper is strictly an interop adapter, not a performance mechanism:

• No caching guarantees: Repeated calls to AsRandom() may allocate new wrapper instances. Users should not rely on wrapper identity.
• No thread-safety improvements: Thread-safety behavior is entirely inherited from the underlying RNG.
• State preservation: The wrapper stores the RNG instance exactly (no copies, no cloning), so state mutations affect the original instance.

Round-tripping:

Calling AsRandomSource() on a WrappedRandomSource<TRng> returns the original Underlying instance, preserving identity.
